Chapter 1 Sinking Feelings

Kelly's POVWas it a blessing to marry your best friend?I was not very sure what Pierce thought but marrying him was a dream come true for me. And now what was more exciting, we were going to welcome our first child.“It’s a good thing you’re cautious. You could’ve lost your baby, Miss Monroe.” The GYN told me seriously as she could see the shock in my eyes.I subconsciously touched my belly, and still couldn't believe a baby was lying there. Had I heard it right? I was pregnant? I was pregnant with a baby for Pierce! My best friend and my first crush!On the way out of the hospital, I couldn’t wait to tell Pierce about our baby. I wondered what his reaction would be. Would he scream in happiness? Would he kiss me and all? God! I couldn’t contain my happiness.I cupped my red face as I fantasized. But the moment I felt the cold from the simple ring on my finger, my wildly beating heart calmed down. I almost forgot that Pierce wasn't the type to be keen on having children, especially

Chapter 2 It Never Rains but It Pours

Kelly’s POVI got off the bed and tried to leave but Pierce grabbed my hand. I immediately wiped the tears that rolled down my cheeks before he could see them. He stood in front of me and looked at my face as I tried so hard to look down and avoid his eyes.I felt my heart breaking into pieces. I thought… I thought I could make him fall in love with me within those three years together. I thought his feelings would level up and would see me as a woman rather than just a best friend. I was stupid for hoping and dreaming so high.I failed. No matter how hard I tried, his heart belonged only to his first love Lexi.“Kelly…”I sucked my breath and swallowed the pain as I looked at him. I faked a smile, “I need to wash up before eating.”He stared into my eyes as if trying to figure out what I was thinking. I know he knew me too well so I tried so hard to hide my pain and smiled at him.He sighed and let go of my hand. “Okay. I’ll wait for you here. Let’s eat and go to work together.”Toge

Chapter 3 Stiff Upper Lip

Kelly’s POVI entered the studio wearing just two-inch red heels and a red dress. Everyone was looking my way as I walked along the hallway. They’re all greeting me with a smile but my face remains stoic, not showing any emotions at all.The conversation with Pierce this morning was still lingering in my head, but I couldn't let it affect my work.I couldn't fail my work after I failed my marriage.I took a deep breath to adjust my condition. However, when I entered the photoshoot room, I could notice everyone was in chaos.“We can’t! She’s not answering her calls. What should we do? The Vice President is coming today. She’d get mad.”“We can just tell her the truth. She’s nice.”“Not in this situation, Lily! She’d scold us—”“What’s happening here?” I asked as I graced the room.The staff were now looking at me with worried expressions and I knew then that there was a problem.“G-Good morning, Miss Monroe.”Miss Monroe. Of course, no one knew that Pierce and I were married except for

Chapter 4 Left High and Dry

Kelly’s POVI was playing with the wedding ring on my finger. I told him to go home early but he didn’t come home completely. He wasn’t even answering my calls.Well, now Lexi was back, this house was probably not home in his eyes anymore.My eyes turned to my pregnancy report on the table. What a mockery. I was still naive to hold a glimmer of hope that things would be different if I told him about the baby. But forget this baby was out of his plan.Sure, Pierce was not the kind who would force me to have an abortion. But he couldn't cut out his obsession with Lexi either. He might stay in this loveless marriage if his parents asked. But all I had would only be an empty shell. That's not a Father what I wanted for my baby.I wiped off the tears collecting at the corner of my eyes and collected the report. It was 5 am already when I looked at the clock on the wall. I tried to dial his number again, but still busy. What was he busy with? Was he busy making love with Lexi? He must have

Chapter 5 Down In the Dumps

Kelly’s POVI was lying on the bed, n*ked under the white sheets. I’m watching Pierce intently as he watched me too while caressing my hair with his fingers. He was looking at me with care, with admiration. My heart is fluttering. He’s my best friend but I feel like we can be beyond that. I’m in love with him. So much in love with him that I feel like I would die if I lost him.“Why are you staring at me like that?”I swallowed hard as I felt the discomfort between my legs. I gave myself to him last night. After we got married.“What if I get pregnant?”He doesn't love me the way I love him. He only married me because of his grandparents. His grandmother is sick and our families are friends. We have been arranged to marry and I never thought he’d agree to this marriage.He gently caressed my cheek as his eyes softened. “Kels, you know I’m not ready to be a father. I’m not even ready to get married. I just did this because of my grandparents. I know you have the same reason?”I felt my

Chapter 6 Bear the Brunt

Kelly’s POVI walked out and went to the bedroom. I grabbed a pillow and blanket. I turned and was about to leave when Pierce entered the bedroom and looked at me.“Where are you going?”I looked at him sharply. “Why do you care?”“I care because you’re my wife, Kelly!”A sarcastic laugh came out of my mouth because of what he said. I looked at him with rage. “We’re divorcing anyway.”“Kelly, you can’t just run away like this. We have to talk about the problem.”“I don’t have a problem, Pierce. It was you who had a problem and you created it, just to remind you.”He grabbed my wrists and kept me in place when I tried to leave. His jaws were clenching as his eyes bore at me angrily. “My father is angry, Kelly. He’s accusing me of cheating on you.”I tilted my head, “Are you not?”His forehead creased. “I am not an *sshole, Kelly. Did you see me kissing her or fcking her? I still have my sanity with me. I won’t go intimate with her as long as you’re carrying my name—”“Frankly speaking,

Chapter 7 Cutting You Loose

Kelly's POVI slowly turned around and I'm certain I paled when I saw two people standing a few meters away from us. From the corner of my eyes, I saw Pierce still on the floor, looking at the newcomers with a shocked face."G-Grams…" I mumbled as I felt my throat dry.She shook her head as she laughed nervously. "I must be hearing things. How's everyone? I missed all of you, so we paid a visit.""Grams…" Pierce pulled himself up and walked towards his grandmother.She was the one who raised him so he loved her and respected her so much. I cupped my mouth when Grams ignored Pierce and looked away.I took a deep breath and gathered all my courage to speak again… "Grams, I'm sorry…"She looked at me with tears in her eyes, "D-Did my grandson hurt you, Kelly?"I shook my head, "No, Grams. He's the sweetest. I-I just…I just feel like I need to let him go because we're not really meant for each other.""Kelly…" I heard Mrs. Anderson sobbing.Grams shook her head and caressed her cheek.

Kelly’s POV“What’s the problem?” I coldly asked Hayley after I reached the studio. She’s now panicking. Her assistant called me saying there’s a problem involving Lexi, our new model and our professional make-up artist.She swallowed hard. “Miss Monroe, Miss Lexi refused to do the photoshoot today. She had an argument with our make-up artist and she insisted on finding a new one.”I sucked my breath and started massaging the bridge of my nose.

Kelly’s POVLooking back at them would just hurt me more. I restrained myself and my chest was clenching again but I won’t let this pain drive me nuts.I was about to go to my office when someone called my name. When I looked at the person who called me, my mood instantly lightened.“Chris!” I called happily.He was smiling sweetly as he walked towards me and when he got the chance, he pulled me for a gentle and warm hug.Christopher Parker was my college suitor.
